Wildlife holidays in DominicaTours & holidays in 2018 & 2019

The best way to explore the rain and cloud forests, volcanic craters and steamy slopes on Dominica holidays is by hiking. Which is why the Waitukubuli National Trail, the only long-distance walking trail in the Caribbean, is so highly rated by international trekkers. Spanning 185kms from north to south, it was designed by the local community to link up remote villages and is just one of many highlights to unveil within this untouched island paradise.

There were many highlights on this trip, but perhaps the most memorable was the hike to Boiling Lake, with our fantastic guide Jeffrey Charles. The hike took us around 7 hours, including a lunch stop at the Boiling Lake itself. Despite nearly 2 weeks there, we feel we have barely scratched the surface of this beautiful island and would dearly like to return. (more)Stan and Jenny Cobon

The most memorable part was mi
xing with the local people, both through our 11 days of excursions using wonderful Domincan guides, and simply talking to people and drinking with them in a village bar at Carnival time. (more)Charles Moberly

Try to get to know the people who live near your accommodation. Dominicans are very friendly and love to share their lives with you. (more)Joan Rule
